Serverless360 for Azure Integration Solutions

Microsoft Azure is a fantastic platform that allows customers to access many cloud resources that customers can then connect to solve business problems. There is enormous power in the platform, and it’s like having your giant box of Lego bricks, which you can build into any solution. The challenge with a platform in which you can build anything you want is that when your application is built, the platform view makes it difficult to create a way for your non-cloud experts to support the end solution.

Be on top of Azure Service Bus issues with proactive monitoring

Gone are days of large applications having tens of servers to deal with gigabytes of data, when seconds of response time and hours of offline maintenance were acceptable. Modern applications are deployed on everything running thousands of multi-core processors; end-users expect millisecond response times and 100% uptime. Need not mention the applications work with Data in Petabytes.

Logic App Best practices, Tips and Tricks: #9 Control your connectors (API connections)

Welcome once again to another Logic App Best practices, Tips, and Tricks. In my previous blog posts, I talked about some of the most essential best practices you should have while working with the Azure Logic App: And some tips and tricks: Today I’m going to speak about another critical Best practice, Tips, and Tricks that you need to implement while administrating your cloud integration resources: Control your connectors (API connections).

How Site24x7 automates your serverless workflows using the AWS Lambda function URL integration

AWS Lambda is a compute service that lets you run code on high-availability infrastructure without any server provisioning. You can perform tasks such as maintenance of servers and operating systems, capacity provisioning, automatic scaling, and code logging and monitoring. When using AWS Lambda, you are just responsible for your code. Lambda manages the resources needed to run your code, like CPU, network infrastructure, and memory.

Build a Cypress tests infrastructure for serverless applications

When a startup is in its very early stages, rapid iteration and dynamism are at the top of its priorities. The ability to do so, while maintaining a stable and high-quality product, is a big challenge facing the R&D group. We want to release features as quickly as possible, but this rapid velocity cane cause conflicts when writing in-depth, comprehensive tests.

How to Use OpenTelemetry to Troubleshoot a Serverless Environment with StackState

Losing track of communication between applications or code has become a problem with the tech world growing more into supporting Serverless cloud architectures and allowing the developer to maintain, upgrade and update these services. One might say that services and code are becoming more loosely coupled, allowing code to run and execute in silos. Let's take an AWS Lambda function as an example.

Welcome once again to another Logic App Best practices, Tips, and Tricks. In my previous blog posts, I talked about some of the most essential best practices you should have while working with the Azure Logic App: And some tips and tricks: Today I’m going to speak about in my opinion one of the most annoying features/tasks and recommend some Best practices, Tips, and Tricks to minimize it: working with expressions.

Serverless360 to enable your Security Manager to WAF data

Recently we had an interesting use case from our customer for which Serverless360 mapped a perfect solution. We resolved the issue with the new Log Analytics and Application Insights capabilities from Serverless360. This blog will help you better understand the feature set with a real-time use case.

5 Common Step Function Issues

Step Functions, the serverless finite state machine service from AWS. With DynamoDB, Lambda, and API Gateway, it forms the core of serverless AWS services. If you have tasks with multiple steps and you want to ensure they will get executed in the proper order, Step Functions is your service of choice. It offers direct integrations with many AWS services, so you don’t need to use Lambda Functions as glue. This can improve the performance of your state machine and lower its costs.

AWS Lambda: function URL is live!

AWS announced the release of the Lambda Function URLs feature today. In this post, I describe what it is, how it works, and how you can benefit from it. API Gateway and AWS Lambda is a potent combination and lets you build REST APIs without having to worry about the underlying infrastructure. API Gateway offers many powerful features out-of-the-box, including: Understandably you pay a premium for these features.
